need help completing workflow for emailing files

Having only started using Automator recently I need help finishing a workflow for resizing and emailing sets of jpeg files.

The workflow as it stands consists of:

Visual check of files in Bridge before upload, at which point I copy a filename to the clipboard.

Then run a Workflow with the following steps:

Ask for Finder Items (these are on a local server)
Copy Finder Items (to folder on local drive, to avoid creating unnecessary files on Server)
Scale Images (800 px)
New Mail Message including a signature. (different workflows for different recipients)

All quite simple and works well.

However, I need to place the name of one of the files (all files have the same name and a sequence no) into the Subject line of the email in front of the word Proofs. A Watch Me Do will not work, so I was trying to get Get Contents of Clipboard to paste into the Subject line.

Any ideas on how to achieve this last step would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
